Carlos Estevez Expected to Begin a Rehab Assignment on Tuesday
The Kansas City Royals are anticipating right-handed reliever Carlos Estevez (foot) will start a minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Omaha on Tuesday. Estevez only made one appearance for the Royals before being hit in the foot by a comebacker and going on the 15-day injured list with a left-foot contusion, but he's nearing a return to the big-league bullpen and could be back with the club this week. The 33-year-old veteran had a league-high 42 saves and was an All-Star for the second time in his career in 2025 in his first year with the Royals, but his velocity was noticeably down during spring training, and he was lit up for six earned runs on four hits (one homer) while walking two and striking out none in one-third of an inning in his only appearance so far this year before going on the IL. Lucas Erceg has been up and down as the Royals' fill-in closer with Estevez on the shelf, so the veteran reliever may regain closer duties upon his return from the IL. Fantasy managers searching for saves could take a flier on Estevez in hopes that he can regain some velocity and turn things around in 2026. He's only rostered in 64% of Yahoo leagues currently.

Anthony Edwards to Come Off Bench Monday
Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards (knee) will come off the bench Monday against San Antonio in Game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinals after missing two games with a left knee bone bruise and hyperextension. He has been cleared to play but will operate under an undisclosed minutes restriction, lowering his DFS ceiling. Terrence Shannon Jr. will remain with the first unit after posting 24 points, six rebounds, one assist, two steals, and one three-pointer in 35 minutes against Denver. Julius Randle and Jaden McDaniels should also stay heavily involved.

Gerrit Cole to Make his Fourth Rehab Start on Tuesday
New York Yankees right-hander Gerrit Cole (elbow) is scheduled to make his fourth minor-league rehab start on Tuesday, May 5, for High-A Hudson Valley, according to MLB.com. Cole made his third rehab start on April 29, going 5 2/3 innings while throwing 60 pitches and sitting at 93-96 mph with his fastball. Overall in his three rehab starts, the 35-year-old former American League Cy Young winner has a bloated 5.02 ERA and 0.84 WHIP with 10 strikeouts and only one walk in 14 1/3 innings pitched. Cole has been hurt by the long ball (four homers allowed) while on the farm, but otherwise, he's looked good and has slowly built up his pitch count as he looks to return to the Yankees' starting rotation. He's recovering from Tommy John surgery that kept him out for the entire 2025 campaign. There's a chance that Cole's rehab outing on Tuesday could be his last before he's reinstated from the 15-day injured list. The former first overall pick will be eased back into New York's rotation after his long layoff, but he's worth stashing in all fantasy leagues to see if he can return to ace form for the second half of the season. Right now, he's only rostered in 84% of Yahoo leagues.

Bryson Graham Hired as Bulls Lead Executive
According to Shams Charania, the Chicago Bulls have hired Bryson Graham as executive vice president of basketball operations. Graham, 39, is known for his player evaluation work, with a draft record that includes Trey Murphy III, Herbert Jones, Dyson Daniels and Nickeil Alexander-Walker. For fantasy managers, the move signals potential roster changes, especially given Chicago's multiple first-round picks and significant cap space. Josh Giddey and Matas Buzelis could benefit if the front office prioritizes development, while the next coaching hire will help shape rotations and long-term fantasy value.

Yainer Diaz Scratched From Monday's Lineup With Abdominal Injury
Houston Astros catcher Yainer Diaz (abdomen) was scratched from the lineup for Monday's series opener against the visiting Los Angeles Dodgers with a left-abdominal injury, according to Brian McTaggart of MLB.com. Christian Vazquez entered the lineup in place of Diaz to catch left-hander Steven Okert, and he was put in the nine-hole in the batting order. Diaz's status is now worth watching going into Game 2 of the series in Houston against the Dodgers on Tuesday. For now, fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day. The 27-year-old Dominican backstop is the Astros' primary catcher, and he entered Monday's action hitting .248 (25-for-101) with two home runs, five doubles, 14 RBI, and seven runs scored across his first 26 games of 2026. He's gone hitless in his last two games, but since April 19, Diaz has gone 14-for-42 (.333) with a homer, four doubles, five RBI, and three runs scored in a span of 11 games played. Vazquez would become Houston's go-to catcher if Diaz's abdominal injury is serious enough to land him on the injured list. Diaz is rostered in 56% of Yahoo leagues.

Jalen Williams Sidelined Tuesday vs Lakers
Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams (hamstring) has been ruled out for Tuesday's Game 1 against the Lakers after suffering a Grade 1 strain and is expected to miss additional time. His absence opens a sizable usage gap, with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander set to carry an even heavier offensive load while Chet Holmgren takes on more frontcourt responsibility. Ajay Mitchell and Cason Wallace should see a bump in minutes, though their roles could shift from game to game. Oklahoma City will lean more heavily on its primary creators early in the series.

Carter Bryant Unavailable for Game 1 Against Minnesota
San Antonio Spurs forward Carter Bryant (foot) is out for Monday's Game 1 against Minnesota after suffering a foot sprain in practice. The rookie's absence is not expected to significantly alter the rotation, as he played a limited role in the first round, averaging 3.2 points, 2.2 rebounds, and 1.4 assists in 9.2 minutes. Keldon Johnson and Harrison Barnes are likely to absorb the available minutes, though usage should remain concentrated around Victor Wembanyama and De'Aaron Fox. Bryant's absence carries little to no fantasy impact.

Anthony Edwards Set to Return Monday with Restrictions
Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards (knee) is available for Monday's Game 1 against San Antonio but is expected to play limited minutes after missing time with a knee injury. Even with a restriction, Edwards remains the focal point offensively, though his ceiling may be capped early in the series. Julius Randle and Jaden McDaniels could take on more scoring responsibility, while Mike Conley may see added playmaking duties. Bones Hyland and Terrence Shannon Jr. could lose touches with Edwards back, tightening the rotation around Minnesota's primary options.

Joel Embiid is Cleared for Monday's Game 1
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (hip) is available to play ahead of Monday's Game 1 against the New York Knicks. As expected, Embiid is cleared to play after being listed as probable on the injury report. The oft-injured big man has been a frequent guest on the injury report, but is ready to play despite dealing with a minor hip injury. His presence in the rotation will mean minimal roles for Andre Drummond and Adem Bona. Neither player is worth a look as a DFS with Embiid healthy and taking on a full workload.

Kevin Huerter is Questionable for Tuesday's Contest
Detroit Pistons guard Kevin Huerter (groin) holds a questionable tag ahead of Tuesday's Game 1 against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Huerter missed the final three games of the first-round series against the Orlando Magic. He continues to deal with a lingering groin injury that could impact his availability for the beginning of this series. Daniss Jenkins and Javonte Green would likely continue to see more playing time if Huerter is unavailable on Tuesday. His absence has impacted Cade Cunningham the most, with him playing nearly 40 minutes during Sunday's victory over Orlando.

Ayo Dosunmu is Ruled Out for Game 1 on Monday
Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Ayo Dosunmu (calf) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's Game 1 against the San Antonio Spurs. Dosunmu sat out during the Game 6 victory over the Denver Nuggets. The lingering calf issue is going to keep him sidelined for at least one more game. The Wolves should be in decent shape as long as Anthony Edwards (knee) is available to play, but he currently carries a questionable tag into this game. Terrence Shannon Jr. gained the most value without Edwards or Dosunmu on the court for Thursday's win over the Nuggets. Without Dosunmu available, Bones Hyland, Jaylen Clark, and Shannon should all benefit from increased playing time.

Jeremy Sochan is Available for Game 1 on Monday
New York Knicks forward Jeremy Sochan (hamstring) is available to play ahead of Monday's Game 1 against the Philadelphia 76ers. As expected, Sochan is cleared to play after being listed as probable on the injury report. It's nice to have him available, but Sochan wasn't in the rotation during the first round of the postseason. Depending on how the game goes, Sochan could see a few minutes, but he won't be someone worth targeting in DFS contests.

Roman Anthony Pulled Early on Monday After Tweaking his Wrist
Boston Red Sox outfielder Roman Anthony (wrist) was forced from Monday's series opener against the Detroit Tigers early after tweaking his wrist in his first at-bat on a swing, according to Ian Browne of MLB.com. Masataka Yoshida replaced Anthony in left field. The 21-year-old Anthony should be considered day-to-day for now, but fantasy managers will want to check back for an update on his status after Boston's game against Detroit. So far in 2026, Anthony has been a disappointment for fantasy managers, as he entered Monday's contest with the Tigers with a .231/.357/.324 slash line, .681 OPS, only one home run, five RBI, 12 runs scored, and two stolen bases in 29 games across 129 plate appearances. He was one of the top prospects in all of baseball in 2025 before getting called up for his major-league debut. Before an injury ended his season early in September, Anthony was living up to expectations with a .292/.396/.463 slash line, eight home runs, 32 RBI, and four steals in his first 71 big-league games. UPDATE: X-rays on Anthony's right wrist came back negative, but he will fly to Boston on Tuesday to visit with a hand specialist.

Braves Reinstate Sean Murphy From Injured List on Monday
The Atlanta Braves announced on Monday that they reinstated catcher Sean Murphy (hip) from the 10-day injured list and designated catcher Jonah Heim for assignment in a corresponding move. Murphy is making his 2026 season debut in Monday's series opener against the hosting Seattle Mariners and right-hander Logan Gilbert, doing the catching for rookie right-hander JR Ritchie and batting seventh in the order. The 31-year-old veteran backstop should be rostered in more than the 1% of Yahoo leagues he's currently rostered in, as he should play regularly for Atlanta between catcher and designated hitter. He went just 8-for-43 (.186) with no home runs, four RBI, four walks, and 12 strikeouts during his 13-game minor-league rehab assignment, so fantasy managers might want to temper expectations for Murphy early on. Murphy is still worth taking a chance on in hopes he can rediscover his power stroke after having offseason hip surgery. He had 82 total home runs in his last five seasons.

Michael Harris II Missing Second Straight Game on Monday
Atlanta Braves outfielder Michael Harris II (quadriceps) is missing a second straight game on Monday in the series opener in Seattle against the Mariners, according to MLB.com. Harris missed a couple of games late last week with a left-quadriceps injury before returning to Saturday's contest against the Colorado Rockies as the designated hitter. Apparently, he's had a setback, though, as he's now sitting for a second straight game to begin the new week. Mauricio Dubon will start in center field for Atlanta and will hit cleanup for the Braves on Monday against Mariners right-hander Logan Gilbert. Consider Harris day-to-day for now, but if he doesn't improve soon, he could land on the 10-day injured list to allow his quad injury to fully heal. Fantasy managers are just hoping the quad injury doesn't interrupt Harris' hot hitting at the plate. Through 32 games in 2026, he's slashing .321/.354/.557 with a .911 OPS, seven home runs, 22 RBI, 13 runs scored, and two stolen bases across 113 plate appearances. Harris had his first 20-20 campaign in 2025 and has had exactly 20 stolen bases in three of his four seasons in the big leagues. UPDATE: Harris is being considered day-to-day.

Jhoan Duran to Come Off the Injured List on Tuesday
Philadelphia Phillies right-handed closer Jhoan Duran (oblique), who has been out since April 11 with a strained muscle in his left side, will come off the 15-day injured list on Tuesday "unless something weird happens," interim manager Don Mattingly told Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer. The Phillies will clear Duran to rejoin the back end of their big-league bullpen early this week after he looked good during a bullpen session over the weekend. Fantasy managers need to keep in mind that Duran will be skipping a minor-league rehab assignment, but they should still put him back into their starting lineups for Tuesday's series opener at home against the Athletics. Duran is one of the better closers in the league, and he was sporting a 1.35 ERA with eight strikeouts, no walks, and five saves for the Phillies in 6 2/3 innings before landing on the IL. Right-hander Brad Keller, who served as Philly's fill-in closer with Duran sidelined, will revert to a high-leverage setup role now that Duran is returning.

Jeremy Pena Could Start Rehab Assignment This Weekend
Houston Astros shortstop Jeremy Pena (hamstring) could start a minor-league rehab assignment this weekend, according to The Athletic's Chandler Rome. Pena appears close to rejoining the Astros after being shut down in the middle of April with a Grade 1 right-hamstring strain. It's been an injury-plagued 2026 season for Pena so far, as he recovered from a fractured finger just in time for Opening Day in late March. The 28-year-old Dominican shortstop will return to starting duties at the 6 for Houston when he's activated, making him worth stashing everywhere. He's currently rostered in 81% of Yahoo fantasy baseball leagues. In 43 at-bats before tweaking his hamstring, Pena had 11 hits (no homers), no RBI, five runs scored, and an RBI. When he returns, veteran Carlos Correa is expected to shift back to the hot corner, which will make regular playing time harder to come by for Isaac Paredes. Pena was a first-time All-Star in 2025, slashing .304/.363/.477 with an .840 OPS, 17 homers, 62 RBI, 20 stolen bases, and 68 runs scored in 125 games.

Hunter Brown Could Throw a Bullpen This Weekend
Houston Astros right-hander Hunter Brown (shoulder) could throw a bullpen session this weekend, according to Chandler Rome of The Athletic. Brown is currently on the 15-day injured list due to a Grade 2 right-shoulder strain, but he's making progress in his recovery after he resumed throwing on flat ground over a week ago. Once he progresses to throwing bullpens, Brown will then look to face live hitters before likely going on a minor-league rehab assignment. He still has plenty of boxes to check, and barring a setback, he's expected to return to Houston's starting rotation by early to mid-June. In the meantime, Brown should continue to be stashed in an IL spot in all fantasy baseball leagues as a true No. 1 starter when he's healthy. The 27-year-old former fifth-rounder in 2019 out of Wayne State was a first-time All-Star in 2025, going 12-9 with a 2.43 ERA, 1.02 WHIP, and 206:57 K:BB in 185 1/3 innings across 31 starts. He picked up where he left off this year in two starts before his shoulder strain, allowing only an earned run on five hits with six walks and 17 K's in 10 2/3 frames.

Cal Raleigh Still Out With Side Tightness Against Braves
Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh (side) continues to sit out of Monday's series opener against the Atlanta Braves due to right-side tightness, according to MLB.com. Mitch Garver will do the catching for right-hander Logan Gilbert and will bat eighth for the M's against right-handed rookie JR Ritchie in the first game of the series in Seattle. Raleigh complained of side tightness on Friday and was scratched from the lineup against the Kansas City Royals on Saturday. The 29-year-old left-handed slugger also sat out of Sunday's series finale. The Mariners were concerned enough to send Raleigh for an MRI exam, but he said on Sunday that he's feeling better. We can't rule out an injured-list stint for the All-Star catcher yet, but for now, consider him to be day-to-day. Raleigh was a first-time All-Star in 2025, when he led the league in home runs (60) and RBI (125). He has homered seven times already in 33 games this year, but he's also struggled to a .186 average (24-for-129) with 16 walks and 43 strikeouts across 147 plate appearances. Check back on Tuesday to see if Raleigh can return to the starting nine in Seattle.

Brice Turang Feeling Better on Monday, Back in the Lineup
Milwaukee Brewers second baseman Brice Turang (illness) is back in the starting lineup and is hitting third for the Brew Crew for Monday's series opener against the division-rival St. Louis Cardinals and right-hander Kyle Leahy at Busch Stadium, according to MLB.com. Turang is back in action to begin the new week after he was held out of Sunday's series finale against the Washington Commanders due to an illness. He'll have more protection in the batting order in his return, too, with star outfielder Jackson Chourio (hand, foot) making his season debut and batting in the two-hole. Even though Turang is hitless in four career at-bats against Leahy, fantasy managers should return him to their starting lineups on Monday. The former 21st overall pick in 2018 is off to a great start at the plate in 2026, entering Monday's slate with a .291 average (32-for-110) with a league-leading .428 on-base percentage, four home runs, 20 RBI, 27 runs scored, and seven stolen bases in 30 games played.

But Tippett has exited the lineup at the start of Round 2. "He's a possibility for (Game 3 in Philadelphia on) Thursday," Flyers head coach Rick Tocchet said ahead of Game 2. "It'll be a game-time (decision) again." Alex Bump has a chance to make a bigger impact with Tippett sidelined.

Roope Hintz Recovering From Hamstring Injury
Dallas Stars center Roope Hintz revealed he dealt with a hamstring injury late in the season, Taylor Baird of NHL.com reports. The Finnish forward dropped out of the lineup in early March and didn't play in Dallas' first-round defeat to the Minnesota Wild. "I just kind of over-stretched it or something and it just kind of popped; I don't know what really happened there," Hintz said Monday. He feels he could have been ready to play in Game 2 or Game 3 of the second round if Dallas had advanced. This suggests Hintz shouldn't have any trouble getting 100 percent healthy for next season. He remains a core piece for the Stars, averaging 0.91 points per game since 2020-21.

Tyler Seguin Expects to Be Ready for Training Camp
Dallas Stars forward Tyler Seguin (knee) expects to be healthy for the start of training camp in the fall, Taylor Baird of NHL.com reports. The 34-year-old saw his 2025-26 campaign end in early December after an ACL tear in his right knee. Seguin made only 27 appearances, finishing with 17 points (seven goals, 10 assists). Unfortunately, this marked the second consecutive year Seguin's season was cut short by injury. He was limited to 20 outings in 2024-25 due to hip surgery. These have been tough injury setbacks for Seguin, but he feels he'll be "as strong as ever" when he returns next season. The 2026-27 campaign will be the final season of Seguin's eight-year, $78.8 million contract.

Sam Carrick Could Practice Tuesday
Buffalo Sabres center Sam Carrick (arm) could return to practice on Tuesday. Over the weekend, Sabres head coach Lindy Ruff told reporters that Carrick likely won't be available for the team's second-round matchup against the Montreal Canadiens, but he is ahead of schedule in his recovery from a left arm injury. "(He's) going to see our doctors today and thinks he's further along than maybe I portrayed yesterday," Ruff said Monday. "So, with good news, he could join our team back in practice tomorrow, which is great news. That would put him a little bit ahead of schedule." Carrick injured his left arm in a fight with New York Islanders forward Anders Lee on March 31. He was a trade deadline acquisition for the Sabres, recording six points (five goals, one assist) and 20 hits in 13 games.

Alexander Nikishin Won't Play Monday
Carolina Hurricanes defenseman Alexander Nikishin (concussion) will miss a second consecutive game on Monday against the Philadelphia Flyers, according to Walt Ruff & Peter Dewar of the Hurricanes' official site. The Russian blue-liner suffered a concussion during Carolina's series clincher against Ottawa. He wasn't quite ready to play in Game 1 against Philadelphia, allowing Mike Reilly to make his 2026 postseason debut. Reilly recorded two assists in a 3-0 win and will retain his spot on Monday night. "He's been solid," Hurricanes head coach Rod Brind'Amour said about Reilly Monday morning. "That's a tough role, really, to be in, when you're not in there every night. But that's what being a pro is, and he's demonstrated that all year."

Lauzon was injured during Vegas' series-clinching win over Utah on Friday. The 29-year-old has limited offensive ability and didn't register any points in six games in Round 1, but Vegas will miss his physical presence. He averaged 3.70 hits per game during the regular season and finished the first-round matchup with 14 hits.

The Swedish veteran appeared in only 14 regular-season games, scoring four goals and adding three assists. Vegas is expected to use Karlsson as the third-line center in Monday's game. Reilly Smith will be scratched to make room for Karlsson in the lineup. Karlsson ranks fourth in franchise history with 71 points (31 goals, 40 assists) in 106 postseason appearances.

George Springer Still Out With Foot Injury on Monday
Toronto Blue Jays outfielder/designated hitter George Springer (foot) remains out of the starting lineup for Monday's series opener against the division-rival Tampa Bay Rays at Tropicana Field, per MLB.com. Outfielder Daulton Varsho will serve as the DH and hit sixth, while Myles Straw will get the start in center field and hit seventh versus Rays right-hander Nick Martinez. Yohendrick Pinango is starting in left field and batting leadoff. After just recently returning from a stint on the injured list due to a fractured toe, Springer fouled a ball off his left foot in Saturday's game against the Minnesota Twins. Springer didn't play in the series finale on Sunday, but the good news is that he doesn't have any new damage in his foot and is considered day-to-day. Fantasy managers will want to check back on Tuesday to see if Springer is ready to go. After a late-career resurgence for Springer in 2025, he's been injured so far in 2026 and is currently hitting just .212 (14-for-66) with two homers, seven RBI, four runs scored, and a stolen base in his 13th year in the Show.

Tampa Bay Rays first baseman Yandy Diaz (side) will serve as the designated hitter and will bat cleanup for the Rays in his return on Monday in the series opener against the division-rival Toronto Blue Jays and left-hander Eric Lauer at Tropicana Field, according to MLB.com. Fantasy managers will want to get Diaz back into their starting lineups after he was held out of the last two games due to left-side tightness that bothered him in Friday's contest against the San Francisco Giants. The 34-year-old Cuban veteran has continued to be a hitting machine in the early going in 2026, as he enters the new week with a .333/.422/.504 slash line, .926 OPS, five home runs, 21 RBI, 19 runs scored, and a stolen base in 117 total at-bats for the Rays. He's gone 9-for-27 (.333) with two of his five home runs against southpaws, and he's hitting .250 with a 1.000 OPS, a home run, and three RBI in eight career at-bats versus Lauer.

Quinn Priester Pulled Off Rehab Assignment Due to Ongoing Struggles
Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Quinn Priester (wrist) has been returned from his minor-league rehab assignment and remains on the 15-day injured list after struggling with his command and velocity in three rehab starts, according to Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. The 25-year-old former 18th overall pick by the Pittsburgh Pirates in 2019 will have to wait even longer before making his 2026 season debut. In his three rehab starts for Triple-A Nashville, Priester has allowed nine earned runs on seven hits (one homer) while walking eight and striking out five in just five innings pitched. He hasn't recorded more than seven outs in any of his three starts. It's unclear how long Priester will be held out before being allowed to restart his rehab assignment, but at this point, he probably won't be ready to rejoin Milwaukee's starting rotation until June. It's good news for both Logan Henderson and Brandon Sproat, with both Priester and Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) on the IL. Priester is rostered in only 22% of Yahoo leagues, and fantasy managers shouldn't feel obligated to continue holding him while he works out his issues in the minors.
